the Summer. Here are a few thoughts that I had on the subject: a. Nothing, just relax and enjoy the summer since life will get very stressful for her soon enough when he BSN clinicals begin. b. Read her textbooks ahead of time. She has a 3.8GPA n...

teams? If so what countries (or territories since we would be interested in Guam, American Samoa ect) might have these sort of opportunities?

Here are a few examples that I've experienced or witnessed during my time in clinicals: 1. It is common that I or one of my fellow students will ask a qustion, or simply say hello, good morning ect to a staff nurse, LPN, or CNA and get absolutely NO...

Maybe the student nurses that treat you as their "personal assistants" are the same ones who end up treating future student nurses "like crap".

The thing is I'm not sure that most people have "a thing" for each other after they've been married for a few years. As I stated in my case I wasn't even attracted to my wife when we dated (she was someone who would listen to my dribble and was sexua...

Lacie you sound like a nice person, but you must understand one thing. As Chris Rock says "if your marriage ain't boring THEN you've got a problem". It humor, but like all great humor there is more than a grain of truth in the observation. Another, g...

He was comatose and given little chance of recovery (but was breathing on his own). His family wanted nothing to do with the guy because they said he was a child molestor. A medical review board at the hospital made the decision. Here's what bothe...

I can't get excited about the Caribbean, it's pretty but not really that exotic.

Sorry, I got carried away in my reply to Husband. I would really like to know more about why Lacie feels her marriage is over. Are there BIG issues like adultery, abuse ect or just a general feeling that there must be "something more or someone bett...

Shouldn't nurses stick together no matter what specialty they choose? If most nurses supported one another then the health care establishment would have to listen.

It seems like most of the travel talk about Hawaii involves NICU's and PICU's. Does this mean that opportunities for MICU, SICU work (travel or otherwise) is not available on Oahu (where we want to live). Also how many travel companies will conside...

Okay, Husband maybe you are an atheist then. I find that many who think of themselves as atheists are really agnostic. After all how can any of us really KNOW that there is or isn't a God. Even if an angelic being of light appeared to us and posed...

No need for an apology BabyRN2Be. I was simply pointing out that even if the scenario had been "imagined or borrowed from a book" that it wouldn't diminish the validity of the topic. It's like all of those "learning scenarios" that we have to do in...

How does Saudi or UAE pay compare with that of the United States? I think American citizens have to pay American taxes even if they live oversee's so that wouldn't be a big advantage. Also, how easy is it to commit a faux paus, or actual violatio...

How expensive is Cairns or Townsville and are there nursing jobs in that area? Living near the Barrier Reef would be awesome! Imagine being able to scuba every weekend in that kind of splendor. Of course sea wasps and sea snakes, not to mention Gr...

These associations started as "common sense" type things here to prevent property values from being depressed by people putting cars on blocks in their front yard, or painting their house polka dot. Gradually, they add ever more "common sense" rules ...

Husband, are you really an atheist or just an agonostic? Depending upon the day that you ask me I'm either a Christian or an agnostic. However, I wouldn't presume to declaire that God (or Nirvana for that matter) doesn't exist anymore than I can co...

Sounds like my relationship with my wife. In all honesty, I met her through a classified ad in a sleazy tabloid after being dumped by the love of my life. I was never even attracted to her looking only for cheap thrills to dull my pain (but how often...

I once attended a lecture by a woman who claimed to have traveled with a group of Aborigenies (I know that's not how it's spelled, but have no idea of the correct spelling) around most of the country. She described how they would let the flys enter t...

BabyRN2Be, let me address your concerns: 1. Who is Echo Herron and why does it matter? This happened, but even if it didn't it wouldn't change the validity of the issue for discussion. 2. My "best friend" (and I am a he by the way) was ordered to pus...

I would like to live in Australia, New Zealand, and almost anywhere in the South Pacific such as French Polynesia, Tonga, Fiji ect. After I get out of my BSN program I plan on getting my acute care or family practice NP degree in the states. I realiz...

The way this would work is that if you agree to donate your organs you would be placed in a higher priority status should you ever need an organ. Obviously, this wouldn't apply to kids, or the mentally impared. I am already a donar, but if I was on...

I think my instructor was saying that it was euthanasia, and that it was common. I wonder if this really reflects reality or is just her impression of the way things are. The reason that I mentioned that the patient was an alleged child molester is ...

I wanted to clarify a couple of points: a. I didn't seek to have the CNA written up. However, since she said what she did in front of my instructor and others it happened anyway (I'm not sure who instigated the "write up", but it wasn't me). b. ...

I've noticed that around here that while there are still lots of job adverstisements for nurses, that there are not as many as there were last year at this time. It also seems like that recruitment bonuses are not being advertised as much. So are a...
